Smith has struggled with body image issues and briefly used anabolic steroids before ceasing after experiencing negative side effects and concerns about his future health.

This book is an equivalent of an attentive friend, who sits you down and tells you that you need to get off your butt (mate) and stop being a knob.The type of a person, who constantly compares themselves to others and feels like a failure, especially when scrolling through Instagram profiles of fitness influencers. I lost weight, but absolutely LOATHED HATED AND DETESTED having to track the points - which meant looking up EACH FREAKING INGREDIENT, figuring out the points for them, and then adding them up for each meal, and then calculating my total for the day, and subtracting that from my allowance. I joined his James Smith Academy (JSA) back in 2018, and one of the best things about it (besides Diren Kartal's fine self *drool*) is that it's NOT the kind of program you join and then can never leave if you want to continue your progress. I'm sure lots of young ladies will think he's brilliant and he'll conquer many bed posts because according to the the law of averages he reckons if I dislike him (which he wants) more WILL LIKE him. Michelle Obama's Becoming (Penguin) boomeranged back into the number one spot, displacing Bill Bryson's The Body (Transworld).

Just a solid understanding that people need to live their lives and an approach that lets them take more control over their own life without being dragged in by marketing, spin or bullshit. I find him quite pretentious aswell looking down on ppl who stay stuck in jobs they 'don't absolutely love' you've just insulted most of people who work. Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you.He wants you to join his program (or don't, you can learn a lot from him for free on social media), learn as much as you want or need, and then go on about your life without a recurring bill showing up on your credit card each and every month until you die. He covers a range of topics from diet, diet fads, training routines, supplements, sleep, when to eat, how to eat, motivation, and even women's menstrual cycles. Smith operates an online personal training business named "James Smith Academy," which creates online training plans for users. Not many people actually look at this even a little bit, they don't even acknowledge that the female body is different to the male body and that the monthly changes we endure have massive impact on so many things. He also offers key tips for gym regulars and anyone who struggles with exercise too, and although a lot of this went over my head, it started to make sense.

Smith also seems to understand that many people are dieting and killing their spirit to try and fit unrealistic body images, to that I applaude him.This may result in small marks to the dustjacket and title page, please also bear in mind that each signature will be a little different from the one we show here.
